Pashinyan: Velvet revolution in Armenia cannot be considered successful without a revolution in the economy

ArmInfo.The velvet revolution in Armenia will not have a price without revolutionary economic transformations. This was stated on October 10 by Prime Minister
Nikol Pashinyan, speaking at the closing of the business forum of the
International Organization of Francophone in Yerevan.

According to Pashinyan, the velvet revolution in Armenia was not a
purely political, but a revolution of values. "Ultimately, this
revolution will have no price without economic transformations. In
this regard, today we are at the most important stage of the
revolution, and we must ensure a revolution in the economy for the
benefit of the Republic of Armenia, setting clear rules for those who
want to engage in economic activity in Armenia, "he said.

Today, as the prime minister pointed out, the authorities of the
country face only two conditions for a potential investor: the first
condition - any activity must be carried out within the framework of
the law, the second - to pay taxes. In this case, as the head of the
government assured, the business will enjoy the full support of the
RA government.

Recall that on the eve of the Francophonie summit, which will be held
on October 11 and 12, the business forum of the International
Organization of the Francophonie started in Yerevan today. The forum

Technologies of TUMO, Armenian President Armen Sargsyan, Prime
Minister Nikol Pashinyan and OIF General Secretary Michael Jean said.
